This is what our front yard used to look like. We had two pear trees in the front yard for years. They are not Bradford Pears, I forget what kind they are. Pretty but when they bloomed they stunk plus they were bad for the allergies. I remember the first time that my Forest Ranger dad visited us in our new home. We picked him up at the airport and when we pulled into the driveway he said, "Those are two crappy looking trees, Alan." (You can tell where I got my silver tongue from right.) The problem is that the trees are weak. They branch a lot and the branches are weak points. They eventually split apart. We still haven't replaced them yet. I'm good with that, the grass does better without the trees.
A place to enjoy skies and views from all around the globe. Skywatch is only as good as the people who post here. It is a "not for profit, not for awards" fun place to post and link from. Simply take a picture which includes the Sky, post that picture on your blog and then come here and put your preferred name and link in the relevant places. Try to visit others on the links, those at the beginning and the end.
